(Day/Evening Program) The Associate of Science Degree program in Human Services prepares students to work with individuals who are consumers of the human services delivery system, providing them with direct services and linking them with other community services and resources. Graduates of the Human Services program may be employed in a variety of agencies, which provide supports to individuals and families across the life span. That work may be in the field of developmental disabilities, behavioral health, elderly or children and families at risk. Graduates will be prepared for employment in positions such as community facilitator, enhanced family care provider, residential specialist, family support coordinator, respite or specialized home care provider, paraeducator, home visitor and community services assistants.
The College also offers Certificate Programs in Human Services or Early Intervention/Family Support Assistant, providing students with the major courses required for beginning level positions, as well as providing them with an entry point for the continuation of studies. All Certificate courses have been incorporated into the Degree Program.
Many of the programs offered at NHCTC may be combined with the Human Services program for a dual degree option.
A State Police Criminal Check is the responsibility of students and may be required for fieldwork and/or employment upon request of an agency. A minimum of 96 hours will be completed for each fieldwork course.
